EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Venetian fortress in Rethymno, Crete, Greece. Captured by photographer Frank Buffetrille, this image transports us back to the 16th century when the fortress stood as a symbol of power and protection for both the Venetian Republic and Ottoman Empire. The photograph highlights the warehouse complex of the northern auxiliary gate, which served as a vital storage area for food and tanks within the fortress. Its architectural beauty is evident in its strong fortifications, fortified ramparts, and imposing walls that once safeguarded its inhabitants from external threats. As we gaze upon this piece of history frozen in time, we are reminded of the intricate artistry that went into constructing such a formidable structure. The Venetian School's influence can be seen throughout with their attention to detail and commitment to creating structures that not only provided defense but also showcased their artistic prowess. Beyond its historical significance, this print offers an external view of a building steeped in centuries-old stories. It serves as a reminder of how architecture has played an integral role in shaping societies throughout European history. With no commercial use mentioned or intended by Buffetrille's work, it allows us to appreciate this stunning piece purely for its artistic value. Through his lens, he invites us to explore ancient worlds filled with grandeur and resilience while reminding us of our shared cultural heritage within Europe's diverse tapestry.
